Children treated with radiotherapy to the neck or exposed to environmental radiation are at risk for developing thyroid cancer later in life. The best method for screening these high-risk patients is unclear. We systematically reviewed evidence on the accuracy of ultrasound and palpation to detect thyroid nodules and of fine needle aspiration (FNA), a confirmatory test, to diagnose thyroid cancer.
